[n=bpepple@ppp-69-223-139-103.dsl.wotnoh.ameritech.net] entered the

(10:04:44) lxmaier: ping anyone?
(10:05:02) iWolf: JeffreyTadlock
(10:05:31) lxmaier: heeeey! one more person!
(10:05:36) lxmaier: good to see you iWolf
(10:05:47) iWolf: :)  Thanks!
(10:07:32) lxmaier: okay, then let's keep it short today
(10:07:55) lxmaier: i would like to discuss GeroldKa 's  project to
have a meeting of all european ambassadors
(10:08:07) GeroldKa: :-) nice to hear
(10:08:22) lxmaier: GeroldKa has requested about 600 EUR in funding,
and I think this wouldn't be a problem
(10:08:43) lxmaier: the new famsco will have to vote on the funding,
but I do not see why it shouldn't work
(10:08:50) GeroldKa: also nice to hear
(10:09:04) GeroldKa: next to methere is Jens Kühnel sitting
(10:09:24) GeroldKa: he has also a GREAT idea for the meeting, which
must be discussed with BruderTux
(10:09:31) lxmaier: GeroldKa, would you mind telling us what your idea
is about, for the record?
(10:09:57) GeroldKa: he mentioned to test all Ambassadors who want for RHCE
(10:10:31) GeroldKa: maybe it is a good thing, that all Ambassadors
have a RH-certificate
(10:10:34) GeroldKa: and, ....
(10:10:50) GeroldKa: why not if we´re all in mass at one place with RHCX´s
(10:11:15) lxmaier: well, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have them all
tested, but i am not sure all of them will a) want to, and b) have
enough skill to pass :)
(10:11:35) lxmaier: take me, for example :)
(10:11:46) GeroldKa: that´s really correct; because of that issue I
said: who want to be tested
(10:11:49) sankarshan: :)
(10:12:02) Foolish left the room (quit: Read error: 101 (Network is
unreachable)).
(10:12:03) lxmaier: yepp
(10:12:17) ***GeroldKa would be glad to be an RHCE with an certificate
(10:12:53) GeroldKa: and I´d like to do a lot to get such an
certificate, but in my normal life (@ the moment) I have no money to
do it by myself
(10:13:34) GeroldKa: we´ll like to offer such a exam, if it´s already
be done must be decided by other like BruderTux or Jens
(10:15:48) GeroldKa: imho such a Event could improve our Teamwork in EMEA
(10:16:12) lxmaier: yepp, i agree that this is a good idea
(10:16:16) GeroldKa: and maybe we can also plan (in front of an event)
on which event we like to attend and ask for help and money
(10:16:45) GeroldKa: and also plan a detailled budget for 2007
(10:16:53) lxmaier: i mean, if you manufactured some t-shirts for
cheap and sold them for a euro or two more at the event, you could get
some of the money back this way GeroldKa
(10:17:36) GeroldKa: :-)
(10:17:36) nman64 [n=n-man@fedora/nman64] entered the room.
(10:18:06) GeroldKa: will you be in Germany lxmaier ?
(10:18:11) rdieter [n=rdieter@sting.unl.edu] entered the room.
(10:18:18) GeroldKa: Dec. 1 to 3rd?
(10:18:31) lxmaier: GeroldKa: sorry, i do not have any travels to
germany planned yet
(10:18:44) lxmaier: i don't think so however
(10:18:52) GeroldKa: ic
(10:20:55) GeroldKa: will somebody of the Famsco attend?
(10:21:24) GeroldKa: mmmh
(10:21:29) lxmaier: you will have to ask them GeroldKa, i don't even
remember if any of the new famsco members are in europe
(10:21:50) GeroldKa: we have ONE member of the FAMSCO here in Europe haven´t we?
(10:21:52) lxmaier: but i think you should get your core organizing
team together in the first step
(10:22:10) GeroldKa: Damien Durand
(10:22:17) lxmaier: get the attendance poll (basically so you can be
sure that more than just you and bruderTux are tehre)
(10:22:21) GeroldKa: is Ambassador from Belgium isn´t he???
(10:22:45) lxmaier: and then you can of course start asking some
prominent community members to attend
(10:22:58) lxmaier: that's generally what i would do, anyway
(10:23:22) GeroldKa: we´ll this week
(10:23:32) lxmaier: okay, if there isn't anything else to discuss
about the european meeting, let's move on
(10:23:42) lxmaier: anyone has any questions/comments?
(10:23:43) GeroldKa: some RH-employee from Stuttgart have said, that
they will attend
(10:24:26) ***GeroldKa has to leave take Jens to the airport
(10:24:30) GeroldKa: cu all
(10:24:35) GeroldKa left the room (quit:
"http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GeroldKassube").
(10:25:22) lxmaier: anyone has anything to add?
(10:25:29) iWolf: Nothing to add from here.
(10:25:34) lxmaier: well, then let's wrap it up for today?
(10:25:40) ***iWolf nods
(10:25:52) lxmaier: alrighty
(10:25:57) lxmaier: see you next week
